Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 378

Amelia looked down and said in a tense voice, "Mr. Hopper... I'm sorry. If Cynthia had told me earlier that there was nothing that happened between you, I wouldn't have been so suspicious." "I understand. It was my fault this time. Fortunately, I didn't make a serious mistake."

Patrick admitted his mistake quickly. As he spoke, his lips got closer and closer to her. When he was about to kiss her, he heard Amelia say, "I also have something to tell you."

Patrick forced himself to stop. His gaze fell on her lips with desire. "Speak."

Amelia said frankly, "After receiving Cynthia's call last night, I threw away the cake I had made for you."

"Huh?" Patrick's handsome face was full of surprise. "You made a cake for me? When?"

Amelia said frustratedly, "When I got off work the day before yesterday. I wanted to give you a surprise, but I didn't expect that so many things would have happened. It was my first time to make a cake, but it was tossed into a waste container."

Patrick's dark eyes were full of regret. "Mrs. Hopper, would you make another one for me?"

Amelia thought for a moment before she said, "Then we'll have to wait until next year."

Patrick was not satisfied. "Why do I have to wait? I want one today!"

Amelia was in a dilemma. "But your birthday is over. In Northville, we only celebrate birthdays in advance, and there's no such custom as delaying it."

Patrick proudly raised his chin and said, "I can't be the first one to do that?"

"Well... you can! But not today."

Under Patrick's unhappy gaze, Amelia said pitifully, "You don't know how unlucky I was. Yesterday when I was about to get off work, Hobart called me and left me to work on the sales report in the company. When I was about to finish, the company was out of power. I have to redo it again later so I don't have time to make a cake for you for the time being."

Patrick narrowed his eyes and came to figure the whole thing out by Amelia's words. "So, nothing is going on between you and Hobart?"

"Of course not!"

"Then why did I see you hugging each other?"
